Back in a V8

[Silver CL55]

Really need some photos, might be my next car.
How is the road noise/comfort/performance/anything else, coming from a CL?

Photos to follow once my brain cells start breeding.
I think, could be wrong, that most have the multi adjustable seating.
Comparing the E500 and the CL 600 would be hard. One has a tad under 400bhb..the other 500bhp. The CL had a torque of 800..not sure about the E.
The CL with ABC was very very comfortable.it also had double glazing ( not joking ) so
was almost silent.
The performance of the E500 is great, with three choices of autobox setting.
Normal, sport, and sport manual...changing gears via the paddles. Not as quiet as the CL but a lot depends on road surface and tyres.
The sound from the rear is getting addictive. The rear seats, although not that small are restrictive to taller people. Access to the rear is made easier do to the easy entry/exit.
There are lots of reviews and photographs to look at/read on the net.

Identical to mine albeit mine is an E350. What did you pay for her?

An amount I was willing to pay.
I could have perhaps found cheaper but I liked everything about the car, the colour, trim, full history from the selling dealership. Plus the one previous owner who purchased a new S Class.
